Fly along with the Carbon in Arctic Reservoirs Vulnerability Experiment (CARVE) team as they sample the air above the Alaskan tundra on July 23, 2012. The NASA-funded CARVE campaign collected detailed measurements of greenhouse gases in the Alaskan Arctic and demonstrated new capabilities to quantify Arctic carbon fluxes and carbon cycle-climate processes. CARVE data are available at https://carve.ornl.gov/ and https://daac.ornl.gov/.
